Chapter 54 The Gem Project
Higurashi Shrine, as an ancient shrine that has been passed down for hundreds of years, itself has considerable influence in the local area.

However, in the modern world, people's level of belief in gods has generally decreased, and most of the prayers at shrines are for a kind of psychological comfort.

Higurashi Shrine's usual operating income is mainly from the sale of commemorative trinkets, such as the four-soul jade made of glass that Kagome took before is one of them.

Such trinkets, of course, do not have any magical powers. Most people buy them for freshness or good looks.

Lin Tianchen wanted to earn turnover in modern society, but he couldn't make too much fanfare, so he focused his attention on these trinkets.

Lin Tianchen's surrounding stores also have many trinkets in various forms, and these are all genuine magical items.

But if you want to sell them openly in modern society, some of these accessories with combat attributes cannot be used.

Finally, after some selection, Lin Tianchen found several accessories that could be sold at the shrine.

The first is the lucky stone necklace, which is the same style as various anime, maybe it is a shape, maybe it is a pattern, anyway, it is just some small ornaments with anime edges.

This kind of necklace is just like its name, and it carries the attribute of luck. Although it will not let you win the 3000 million grand prize immediately, it is still possible to make your life go smoothly.

The second is the birthstone, the December birthstone, a stone that can bless the fetus in Japanese mythology.

The December birthstone corresponds to twelve gemstones, including emeralds and other precious jewels.

Of course, these birthstones of Lin Tianchen are not real October birthstones, they are all ordinary pendants made of glass with some anime elements added.

But in the world of Inuyasha, these parallel imports have become real gems!
Therefore, the material of the [-]th birthday stone is the key to its high price in this world, compared to its own function of protecting the fetus and protecting the child.

The third and last ornament is called moonstone, also known as moonstone, which means lover's stone.

The price range of moonstones is very wide. The moonstone jewelry in Lin Tianchen's hands are indeed genuine, but they are all ordinary moonstones.

These lovers' stones are in pairs, designed with some well-known lovers in anime as templates. There are pendants, rings, and bracelets. They have one function - to bless the marriage!
These three kinds of gem ornaments include three attributes of luck, pregnancy, and marriage. They are what ordinary people generally pray for, and they are very suitable for sale to believers who come to the shrine to pray for blessings.

As for Lin Tianchen's business suggestion, Kagome's grandfather didn't have much opinion, and was even very happy to see its success.

Higurashi Shrine has not had much development for a long time. Kagome's grandfather tried his best, but in the end it didn't work.

In the eyes of Kagome's grandfather, Lin Tianchen, as a half-demon, should be very capable, so when Lin Tianchen expressed his desire to sell spiritual artifacts in the shrine, he happily agreed.

That's right!What Lin Tianchen said to Grandpa Kagome was to sell spiritual artifacts to help the shrine gain fame.

Although Kagome's grandfather has always referred to the various items he made as spiritual weapons, he knows very well in his heart that those things have no effect at all.

Only a few ancestral talisman seals are left in the Higurashi Shrine that really has spiritual power.

Looking at the shining gem ornaments Lin Tianchen took out, Kagome's grandfather studied them carefully.

It's a pity that these things are not made by spiritual techniques, and no trace of spiritual power can be found, and Kagome's grandfather can't understand the principle of these "spiritual weapons".

......................................................

In addition to some common celebrations held by the shrines in the island country every year, some shrines with a long history also have their own unique festivals.

As a shrine with a long history, Higurashi Shrine also has such a festival, which is the sacred tree festival!
Obviously, this festival is based on the sacred tree at Higurashi Shrine.

The god tree itself has very strong spiritual power. Inuyasha was nailed to it and sealed for 50 years, and his strength has not diminished in the slightest. That is the effect of the god tree.

Although today, the imperial god tree looks no different from ordinary trees, but in fact it is just that the spiritual power in it is restrained.

Because of the current urbanization, the aura of heaven and earth has weakened. In order to protect itself, Yushenmu had to completely block its own spiritual power to ensure its own survival.

This day is the day of the Higurashi Shrine's sacred tree festival, and people of all ages from the surrounding area come to participate in the event.

This is not because of how effective the Higurashi Shrine is, it’s just like visiting a temple fair, everyone’s picture is such an atmosphere and excitement.

Kagome, who had just finished the final exam, was wearing a shrine maiden costume, another copy of Kikyo.

And standing with Kagome was Lin Tianchen in a gorgeous ancient robe.

Originally, Kagome and the others wanted Lin Tianchen to wear a priest's uniform, but priests are formal religious personnel, even public officials in ancient times.

Lin Tianchen, a half-demon with no identity, would probably cause trouble if he wore a priest's uniform, so Lin Tianchen just wore an ancient robe of the fox clan.

"Tianchen, can you sell these jewelry with such a high price?" Ge Wei looked at the three types of gem jewelry beside her, and said to Lin Tianchen with some concern.

"Absolutely no problem, among other things, those twelfth birthstones are genuine gemstones, our price is already considered low, and people who know the goods will definitely buy them." Lin Tianchen smiled and reassured Gewei.

His gemstone accessories are much cheaper than those in jewelry stores, and those who are discerning and able to identify genuine and fake jewelry will never miss this opportunity.

As for Lin Tianchen himself, selling these accessories at a cheaper price will not cause any loss to him.

Gemstones that are priced at tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands here are only purchased for a few hundred dollars in the real world.

When Ge Wei heard Lin Tianchen's words, although she believed Lin Tianchen, she was still a little apprehensive.

A shrine sells priceless jewels, and most people probably won't believe it.

With the progress of the sacred tree festival, the flow of people in the Higurashi Shrine gradually increased. After chatting for a while, Kagome and Lin Tianchen went to the front to help.

After Lin Tianchen stayed bored for more than half an hour, the previous opening ceremony ended, and finally tourists came to the shrine one after another.

And Lin Tianchen's weird little stall quickly attracted the attention of tourists.

"Are these souvenirs from the shrine?" A young woman asked her husband as she walked to Lin Tianchen's booth.

"No, these are not commemorations, they are spiritual weapons, and they are all blessed spiritual weapons." Lin Tianchen introduced solemnly.

The young woman chuckled when she heard the words, obviously she didn't quite believe the spirit weapon's statement.

And when she saw the price tags of these trinkets on the wooden board, her mouth opened wide, and she fell into a daze for an instant...
